The police are pretty good at generating their own negative attention, given that in the last week alone they battered an 80 man after wrongly turning up at his own house, and then shot dead an unarmed man.

If it was in UK it would have been legal but In america if your a korman you can have loads of wives, if you’re 16 you can buy a sub machine gun but cannot buy a beer the girl accepted money from Epstein but after his death she wanted more and the American legal system went along with her any other legal system in the world would have dismissed it. He was naive but not a pervert. So I’m implying he is just shows that. Judge people by what the media highlight. I am sure footballers who have lost their reputation because girls report them for rape are guilty without trial The girl was probably one of those groomed by Maxwell & Epstein they were given the impression they were going to become stars and one of the biggest names in the business, they were taken to islands they had no escape from and were coerced into doing things to a fat old man and his associates, she was older than many of the victims. HRH, the immense security, legal protection and efficient propaganda machine have pushed it, so she isn't seen as the victim, many like you see her as a money grabber. Epstein killed himself rather than face judgement and Andrew paid her off, the sign of bullies and cowards. Andrew is a proven liar, he's now in hiding but still living a luxurious lifestyle at our expense. If he was so confident that he'd done nothing wrong, he'd have faced the music. Maxwell and Epstein have some powerful friends but not as much nearly as a Queen and King for close family. Now if he'd married a dark skinned American who speaks up every now and then he really would have been a bastard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
